[shenme] coughs up his [id://392520|name]

After a recent pumice-laden afternoon a post by [id://308317|Corion] inspired me:<br>
<blockquote>
votes are monk shadows<br>
xp but poor reflection<br>
pray, participate

and then I found [id://8562] which kinda illustrates my point - back and forth, give and take, all receive.

&lt;[Wassercrats]&gt; Anyone recall if [gmpassos] hates me? I need tinyperl support, and I don't know if I should trust him with my email address.

&lt;[tye]&gt; If StarTrek were made today, they'd always be editting XML to hack things instead of un/replugging 'hot' cables and reversing polarity

&lt;[Intrepid]&gt; Tell them "Soren Andersen in Buffalo, NY really likes Perl". That ought to be enough for them ;-)

&lt;[injunjoel]&gt; greetings all, Are there any statisticians out there?<br>

[diotalevi] Oh. I just wouldn't[id://377787|.]<br>

&nbsp; &nbsp; ooo what's the punchline [Moriarty]?! <br>

Good grief, I read a number from a file (external file! eek!) and used the number in a filename. The read data was tainted, now the filename was tainted, so the rename() blows up.
<br>
[Zaxo] 2006-09-25 21:25:15-04 <br>
hey, that's a good thing!
<br>
[shenme] 2006-09-25 21:25:30-04 <br>
If elections had taint checks, we'd never find anyone good enough to be elected.
<br>
[McDarren] 2006-09-25 21:26:37-04 <br>
and that would also be a good thing!
<br>
[BerntB] 2006-09-25 21:26:53-04 <br>
I tought taint checks what was the press did in election-time?
<br>
[shenme] 2006-09-25 21:28:20-04 <br>
So is this a different way of looking at the common reason used for skipping error checks, "good enough for government work" ?
<p>
Hmm, [www.googlism.com|Googlism] says "shenme is based on interacting with the environment and putting things to use". Yeah, right, but sleep intervenes much too often.

I found this quoted section within a /. anony-posting. Was there ever a language/system/methodology that this wasn't true for? Not in the advertisements for the new 'wonder', but in the actual practice of it?
<blockquote>
If there's any downside, it's that it requires really good programmers. It's not a methodology that is well-suited for a situation that supports people who are, for the lack of a better term, "vocational" programmers, or tool-users.
